Why all this Nate hate (it rhymes XD)? Everyone knows Max is the most scariest admin.

On topic; what trees are in your orchard STM? I've always wondered what plants beekeepers (though you dislike the word) use.
Well apple trees and one measly pear tree. They are very old, one was from a time before my granddad built my house in the 50s (I think the farmer who used to own the land before he sold it to my family had a small orchard) so we aren't too sure what most of the apples are but one tree is a cooking apple tree and there are a few cox apples, also the grass below is riddled with daisies and we have it over grown at the top of the garden too so they thrive on wild flower like fox gloves and blue bells when they are available. However bumble bees like those more and my bees travel up to 5 miles away from the hive so it's hard to tell what they like without biological pollen consultation.
